Spot on BrianπŸ‘

Thanks for sorting that. I'd better start to excavate my bike from the garage, as the builders are using it as a branch of Jewsons by the look of it. Apologies if my riding kit looks like it's been stored in a cave - my whole world is now covered in dust 😭😭

Another having to bail. Sprained right wrist last Sunday and still giving grief. It would be nuts to try and ride a big heavy bike for 3 days.
Hope you all have a good weekend.

Sent PM to ptolemyx,Ming,DaveH, but appears to have disappeared :( so to repeat:-
I have cancelled with the hotel and confirmed that D Hicks will still be arriving. You're still booked Dave.
Hotel asked me to inform organizers.
Hope you lucky guys have a good weekend.

Sprained wrist eh? Hope you mend soon.

On the upside maybe this means that us singletons can have a room each and not have to put with each others snoring! I notice that Welsh COVID rules say that we shouldn't share a hotel room with someone outside our household. And that includes sheep ;-)

That's a pity Roy, but we will see you soon on a ride out - whether you like it or not =:)

Regarding room sharing, me and Rik are okay. We're in the same swingers group :mrgreen:

Don't care who you are, how much you have, how powerful you are. You still sit on the toilet with your pants around your ankles. Yep, it's a level playing field..

Nick, I'm only planning on 10 minutes at Sedgmoor to meet, say hello to the northern contingent to get their kit on and go. Enough time for a choccy bar or sarnie from your pocket? It should be only half an hour from leaving Jcn27......there will be a pit stop in Chepstow (Spar) when we'll all likely want a drink and maybe a snack. Can your requirements fit in with that?

My weather forecasts are now saying no rain, perhaps a little coming home Sunday - can't make its mind up :roll: Will pack Ambre Solaire just in case :mrgreen:
Sunday route home if the weather is reasonable:-

If the weather is poor Sunday we'll come back the usual route.

I know looking fine now. Not so much a weather forecast more looking out the window. Let's hope it's correct πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘
